  • Num 16:28-35 : 28 And Moses said, Hereby you shall know that the LORD has sent me to do all these works; for I have not done them of my own will. 29 If these men die the common death of all men, or if they are visited after the visitation of all men; then the LORD has not sent me. 30 But if the LORD makes a new thing, and the earth opens its mouth, and swallows them up, with all that belongs to them, and they go down alive into the pit; then you shall understand that these men have provoked the LORD. 31 And it came to pass, when he had finished speaking all these words, that the ground split apart that was under them. 32 And the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, with their houses, and all the men that belonged to Korah, and all their goods. 33 They, and all that belonged to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation. 34 And all Israel that were around them fled at their cry: for they said, Lest the earth swallows us up also. 35 And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.

And fire came down from heaven and consumed him and his fifty. 11 Again he sent to him another captain of fifty with his fifty. And he answered and said to him, O man of God, thus says the king, Come down quickly. 12 And Elijah answered and said to them, If I am a man of God, let fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty. And the fire of God came down from heaven and consumed him and his fifty. 13 And he sent again a captain of a third fifty with his fifty. And the third captain of fifty went up and came and fell on his knees before Elijah, and pleaded with him, and said to him, O man of God, I pray you, let my life, and the life of these fifty servants of yours, be precious in your sight.

And as they went, they entered a village of the Samaritans, to prepare for him. 53 But they did not receive him, because his face was set to go to Jerusalem. 54 And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, do you want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them, just as Elijah did? 55 But he turned and rebuked them, and said, You do not know what manner of spirit you are of. 56 For the Son of Man did not come to destroy men's lives but to save them.

And after it was sold, was it not in your own power? Why have you conceived this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men, but to God. 5 And Ananias hearing these words fell down and breathed his last, and great fear came on all who heard these things. 6 And the young men arose, wrapped him up, and carried him out, and buried him. 7 And it was about the space of three hours later, when his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in. 8 And Peter answered her, Tell me whether you sold the land for so much? And she said, Yes, for so much. 9 Then Peter said to her, How is it that you have agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Look, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out. 10 Then she fell down immediately at his feet and breathed her last, and the young men came in and found her dead, and carrying her out, buried her by her husband. 11 And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.
